Ian Roberts - "Mastering Composition" online live course

Week 2 Lesson 1
2 hours well spent and insights galore:
- Excellent mindfulness exercise, better than yoga!
- Pencil quality matters, I might even order the Blackwings ($$$ in Canada)
- My inner perfectionist is alive and well.
- I found my french curves and triangles (from architectural drafting 50 years ago!) and they still work for precision erasing. Maybe I will remember how to use them for correct perspective in curves too.
- Matching the values of a shape when it is interrupted by another shape is not so easy, but really matters.
- Value errors are easier to see in a photo of the sketch, which is maybe the same as stepping back 8 feet.
- Note to self - One hour at a time! The second hour is just mistakes and corrections and the third hour is a dead loss.
